USCPSC, Viessmann Manufacturing Company (U.S.) Inc., Announce Recall of SR-RN-2 and SR-RN2R Boiler Control
Recalling Firm: Viessmann Manufacturing Company (U.S.), of Warwick, R.I.
Reason for Recall / Hazard
The controls have an electronic relay that may fail in a manner that will allow the burner to operate and by-pass the interlock with the flue damper. The interlock assures proper operation of the damper for removal of combustion gases. If the interlock fails, excess carbon monoxide emissions may occur.
Product Description & Identification
The recalled units, which are installed in Atola-RN Boilers, were manufactured between December 1998 and December 2001. This is the entire production of these controls. (The controls do not have a date code that can be seen by consumers.)
